Bombhunters

2006, 78 minutes

An unsettling look at people who hunt bombs for a living.

Bombhunters is an engrossing examination of the micro-economy that has emerged in Cambodia of untrained civilians harvesting unexploded bombs as scrap metal. Part of a global economy, these individuals clear UXO from their land to protect their families from harm and to earn money to survive. Bombhunters is an eye-opening investigation of the residual effects of war experienced by post-conflict nations around the globe, and the complex realities of achieving “peace.”
